Chapter 82 Ying Ziye’s reputation rises again!
Qin's grand ambition to unify the world was just around the corner, and he would never allow any official's dereliction of duty to slow down the pace of this great cause!

"As ordered!"

All the ministers immediately obeyed the order, their hearts were alert, and they secretly vowed to give their all to this matter!
"Haha~"

"Ziye, you have made another great contribution!"

"Tell me, what kind of reward do you hope to get?"

"I promise you everything!"

Ying Zheng turned to Ying Ziye, his majestic face instantly softened and he smiled with appreciation.

Ying Ziye shook his head gently: "Father, I have no other request. It is my duty to serve the Qin Dynasty, and I dare not be greedy for credit!"

This is not just modesty, he really has everything he needs.

Power, wealth, and beauty, he has it all.

If there was anything that could arouse his interest, it was the supreme throne.

However, as long as Ying Zheng is still alive, he will need to wait patiently for decades for this position!
"You are wrong!"

"Even if you have everything you need, according to the laws of Qin, merits must be rewarded and faults must be punished!"

"Um"

"I will give you the city of Xinzheng!"

Ying Zheng pondered for a moment, then waved his hand and generously gave Xinzheng City, the richest city in Yingchuan County, to Ying Ziye.

"Xinzheng"

Upon hearing this, Ying Ziye murmured softly, and many memories came to his mind.

That was his first stop in his travels and also the place that holds the most memories.

He decided to find some time to revisit the place and relive his old memories.

"Thank you, father, for the reward!"

Ying Ziye bowed to express his gratitude and was very satisfied with the reward.

After retreating from the court.

Ying Zheng's orders were quickly transmitted to all parts of the Qin State, and all county governors and magistrates received the design drawings of the barrel cart drawn by Ying Ziye in the shortest possible time.

The water conservancy and iron departments of all counties and prefectures immediately started working to manufacture drum wheels.

In just half a month, huge pipe carts were erected on the rivers and lakes of Qin State. Long pipes extended in all directions, covering farmland within a radius of hundreds of miles.

Although it is impossible to irrigate every piece of farmland in the country, the potatoes and sweet potatoes provided by Ying Ziye are enough to fill the Qin State's granaries!

Suburbs of Xianyang.

Ying Zheng led civil and military officials to the scene to test the effectiveness of the waterwheel in irrigating farmland.

Look around.

In the farmland, rows of bamboo tube pipes stand, and water flows out of the small holes drilled on the wall of each pipe, falling on the fields and nourishing the earth.

Even with the sun shining brightly, the crops in the fields were still lush and green, with no signs of drought.

"Very good!"

"It's amazing how a pile of wood can be made into such a magical artifact. It's like turning stone into gold!"

Witnessing the spectacular sight of irrigation using the water wheel, Ying Zheng could not help but praise it repeatedly.

Listening to Ying Ziye’s description is one thing, but seeing it with your own eyes gives you a completely different feeling!
On the Wei River, huge water wheels are like the arms of giants, constantly drawing water from the river and nourishing the vast fields, forming a magnificent and shocking picture!

"This skill of turning useless things into magical mechanisms is something that even if Lu Ban were reborn, I'm afraid it would be difficult for him to achieve!"

"exactly!"

"The Second Young Master's attainments in mechanical engineering have reached the pinnacle, turning decay into magic!"

"It's incredible!"

"Second Young Master, you are worthy of our unconditional trust!"

"Nothing in the world can stump him!"

The ministers behind Ying Zheng all nodded in praise, as if they were fanatical believers, praising Ying Ziye endlessly.
They completely forgot all the doubts they had about Ying Ziye.

this.
It is a reflection of human nature!
In the crowd, Chunyu Yue looked at the scene in front of him with mixed feelings. He had never expected that Ying Ziye could actually accomplish this great feat that everyone thought was impossible.

If he can even defeat natural disasters, what else can't he do?!

now.

Chun Yuyue secretly felt lucky that he had only silently recited the oath in his heart when he made it. Otherwise, he would have to break his promise and get fat!
Damn!

Never make oaths casually again!

The farmlands are well-watered and the people are all smiling.

They did not have the complicated thoughts of court officials and only cared about whether they could grow crops and fill their stomachs.

Originally they thought that they would have no harvest due to the severe drought, but the second young master took out a magical weapon to help them resist the natural disaster, allowing the farmland to regain vitality and the crops to thrive.

Without a doubt!

For these ordinary people, this is a life-saving grace!
Countless people looked at the lush green crops in the fields and spontaneously knelt down to Ying Ziye to express their gratitude!

Going through this.

Ying Ziye's reputation among the people rose rapidly, reaching its peak, and he was deeply loved by all people!
Some people even set up longevity tablets at home and worship Ying Ziye day and night!

Chunyu Yue's wishful thinking failed again.

He originally wanted to take the opportunity to stir up trouble and lower Ying Ziye's reputation, but he ended up making things worse and instead made Ying Ziye's prestige even higher than before!

Time flies.

In the blink of an eye, it is time for autumn harvest.

Although the Qin State suffered a severe drought, the disaster did not cause serious losses because Ying Ziye invented the simple cart that used rivers to irrigate farmland, and because of high-yield crops such as potatoes and sweet potatoes.

The granaries in various places were piled high with grain, enough to support the operation of the Qin Dynasty.

Since the drought did not have a significant impact on the Qin State, Ying Zheng began to think about sending troops.

now.

With Qi and Wei being the only states left in the world, Ying Zheng can no longer hold back!

Inside Zhangtai Palace.

"Everyone, the autumn harvest is now over."

"Although my Great Qin has suffered a natural disaster, thanks to the artifact created by Ziye, food is still sufficient."

"I have decided to send troops to attack Wei and realize my ambition of unifying the world as soon as possible!"

"What do you think?"

Ying Zheng looked around at the ministers below and asked.

Although there was a questioning tone in the voice, it contained unquestionable majesty.

"Your Majesty, I second the motion!"

"Now that our Great Qin army is strong and has sufficient food and grass, it is the perfect time to unify the world!"

Li Si stepped forward without hesitation and expressed his approval.

He knew very well Ying Zheng's determination, and no matter how the court officials tried to dissuade him, this expedition was a foregone conclusion.

The other civil and military officials also knew the truth and echoed it.

Seeing that everyone agreed, a smile broke out on Ying Zheng's face.

"good!"

"Since all of you agree, then I would like to ask, who is the most suitable commander in this war against Wei?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Chunyu Yue immediately stepped forward.

"Your Majesty."

"Prince Fusu has been studying the art of war day and night recently and has made considerable achievements."

"He will surely conquer Wei in one fell swoop and incorporate it into the territory of our Great Qin!"

Wei and Qi were the last good opportunities for Fusu to make achievements, and Chunyu Yue was eager for Fusu to win merit and improve his position in the competition for the crown prince.

Ying Ziye had not only conquered the Three Kingdoms, but also solved numerous livelihood issues in the Qin Dynasty, and enjoyed a very high prestige among the people.

If Fusu had no military achievements and was not popular among the people, he would not be able to compete with Ying Ziye for the position of crown prince just by virtue of his status as the eldest prince.

"Your Majesty!"

"I think Prince Gao is more suitable to lead the army!"

"Your Majesty!"

"I think Young Master Jianglu is more suitable!"
